[ShafferNY]

Does anybody know where is the best place to find replacement runners for the bottom of my 12ft. aluminium boat?

Unless you can find a substitute at a "metals company" or maybe some boat manufacturer will sell the pieces cheap, I think you will spend more fixing this one than looking for another.<br />Might get someone to weld aluminum angle to the old ones. I have seen that done<br />Just watch the money.
